61 days, nearly 10,000 miles, and more gas stops than I care to count — all for the moment I stuck my head in the Arctic Ocean. Didn’t even swim, just a quick dunk, but still worth it. Along the way: 10 national parks, 9 ferry crossings, a new windshield, and more wildlife sightings than I could’ve hoped for.
Alaska was everything glaciers, puffins, musk ox, endless mountains. Totally exhausting but absolutely unforgettable. Already scheming how to do it again, maybe with more actual swimming next time.
